I need my fellow plant folks here. My father in law gave back a plumeria absolutely covered with spider mites. I treated it and brought it into the greenhouse along with the rest.
And you can guess what happened afterwards. Now I have webs between the plumerias and adeniums. I've tried neem oil. Was dousing them on a regular schedule and I think they think it's tasty. Or it's a good suntan oil or something. Either way, that doesn't work and I'm done playing. I want them dead before the Repotting extravaganza in March. So. Can anybody suggest some way to nuke the bugs without hurting the completely dead asleep plants that will actually work?

PM Hoppy and see if he will have any tannerite left over from the beaver hunt.
Sorry, that's all I got.

They’re on the bottom of the leaves. Take it outside and hose it off from the bottom up. Neem Oil and insecticide soap are the best methods. Hydro growers have some interesting products. General Hydro has a good one I believe.

You didn’t have safe plant responsibly now you have plant symptoms
call it what you will...he is not definitely not anywhere near the top of the list for QB's that I would choose needing a FG or touchdown drive late in the game.

If you can, spray DemonWP in the greenhouse after you figure this out. That’ll keep em out.

The only pest anything in there right now is about 8 or 10 lizards wandering around hunting any bugs dumb enough to wander in.

How tight is the space packed? Roughly, what percentage of the plants have mites?

You should have never introduced them, but you know that.
